The audio-diary of Vinney's trip to Peru, with his pal Blair. The idea was to see the Inca ruins of Machu Picchu (wonder of the world). It certainly was not quite as expected, but was it bad?

Banging British Beats

noreply@blogger.com (Vinney) — Sun, 04 May 2008 07:08:00 +0000

I am DJing a night of dance music from the UK, here in Ottawa, at Helsinki nightclub.

I used to DJ a lot of house/breaks/hard dance/trance in the UK and I miss it, plus I think Ottawa needs it. I have nothing against bands covering 'Mr Jones' in a Irish pub, but variety is a good thing.

Come and dance your socks off, drink like a Brit and have fun to some amazing spine-tingling music that is rarely to be found here in Ottawa and I sincerely look forward to playing it.

The mind-bending tuneage will be provided by....
Prodigy, Depeche Mode, Underworld, Hybrid, Sasha, Leftfield, Orbital, Way Out West, Groove Armada, FatBoy Slim, New Order, Utah Saints, Goldfrapp, Bonobo, Primal Scream, Kosheen, Chemical Brothers, Paul Oakenfold, Faithless, Happy Mondays, The Streets... and some cheeky surpises.

Heres a 2 minute sampler:bbb_helsinki_vinney.mp3

WHY?

1. For fun.
A spectacular kitted out club. With prizes (the queens jewels for one - a replica I presume) and drinks promotions to see in the weekend.

2. For a charity that dramatically improves lives around the world.
Proceeds go to Amnesty International who fight for human rights for all, a world without torture and some regulation of the twisted international arms trade.

TICKET INFO:

Tickets are just a simple $5 (or more if you wish) on the door, on the night. Easy.
100% to Amnesty International.
There will be a kick-ass prize draw thingie inside on the night to raise more cash too.

No one will have free entry, including me, so don't ask please.

This is my web site and I can say what I like, so I say this:
USA makes more weapons than any other country by a long long long way. They (so apparently the UK gov) are worried about Iran's weapons building. Never forget: Iraq's massive weapons arsenal that never existed. Don't you dare attack Iran without 100% proof and reasoning. Look at yourselves, please.
